S6 Ep109: The Treasure on the Wall

If historic houses are the treasure boxes that keep the jewels within them safe, what happens when the box starts to fall apart? Find out how one precious item was left hanging when the walls around it crumbled, until conservators devised a rescue plan.  A contribution from the sale of every roll of Little Greene wallpaper will be made in support of the National Trust’s conservation work. See their heritage wallpaper designs here: littlegreene.com/wallpaper/collections/national-trust-papers-ii
